Ace was in good spirits throughout and topics touched upon included recollections of "KISS Meets The Phantom Of The Park," KISS and Tommy Thayer, Anomaly, recording philosophies, “Gene Simmons: Family Jewels,” and much more.
On KISS and Tommy Thayer:
“I don’t pay that much attention to what they’re doing lately...When I go on YouTube and I read the fans comments and they seem really upset about Tommy being in my makeup…It bothers me that it bothers the fans a lot. It is what it is.”
On Gene Simmons’ reality show:
“I watched it a couple of years ago…it’s so incongruous to his stage persona. First he’s the monster, and then he’s this bumbling silly guy, and then in interviews he’s talking like a professor — but those are the different sides of Gene.”
On Anomaly:
“I’m happiest when I am in control of my destiny. I’ve produced this record, it’s taken forever but I’m really happy with the end result…This new album I think is the closest to the first solo album of anything I’ve put out since that record.”
